The manager Juan requires the team to get to the good form immediately after the stunning exit from the Copa America 2016.

Mexico will play the game without many regular players, especially in attack. Two players Javier Hernandez and Jesus Corona will not play as they are injured. Oribe Peralta has broken his nose during Olympics. Hirving Lozano can’t play as he has received a red card at Rio against South Africa.

Not only attackers but the absence of defenders like Pual Aguilar and Nester Araujo will be felt. Diego Reyes has been transferred to Espanyol.

Though Mexico will miss a lot of players, it should have enough to face opponents on Friday. Last time, both the teams faced each other in November last year in which Mexico turned out to be the winner by 3-0. As of now, El Salvador has fetched only two points in the first four games. In order to continue to keep hope for the final fixture against Canada, it will have to win today’s game.
